My 1st attempt weathering with chalks. The MESS Coaling Tower

Well it made it home in one piece! after a 500mile airplane trip in my duffle bag, in a box surrounded by bubble rap and other kits.
As this is my first attempt weathering with chalk be gentle. Realizing I might have been a bit too heavy with the chalk. I'm still debating whether to put decals on it. The lighting is in place but I have yet to hook it up.

Looks just right to me and very real looking. Personally, I would rather use
chalks that anything else. I am not as experienced as others, but unless I am going to be touching a model I don't coat the chalk with anything. Glad it made the trip and didn't end up in the bone yard.
 
Well Done!!! The weathering is subtle and looks like the tower has been in "service". A little collection of dust is not necessary, she looks like she has been there for a while.

That coaling tower is a MESS! Sorry fergie, I just couldn't help myself. Fine job of weathering, it looks right at home on the layout. Glad it made back home without a misshap....;)
